The Libby Leshgold Gallery presents, Related, an exhibition of works from Brittney Bear Hat, Gabi Dao, Terrance Houle & Neko Wong-Houle, and Zinnia Naqvi.
Each of the artists brought together for the exhibition reveal a piece of their identity as it relates to members of their family. Through their work, they find meaningful ways to connect their familial relationships and histories, in the process discovering more about themselves and their origins.
From where they’ve been to where they are going, they place these discoveries in relation to both private and public moments, looking inward as well as outward to wider cultural contexts. All five artists live within the imaginary border that delineates so-called “Canada,” each with their own distinct histories and connections to this place, which are reflected in their explorations of family and ancestry.
